On January 12th, a masive earthquake hit Hati! It's magnitude was 7.0 on the Richter Scale. There were 33 aftershocks, including 14 over 5.0. Over the last 15 years 9 natural disasters have occured including Hurricanes, Earthquakes, and Flooding. 95% of the poeple are homeless and living on the streets! They do not know the exact number of deaths but they are estimating 100,00 to 200,00 people. Consequently, 3 million people in Haiti have been affected. As many as 50 countries over the world have been giving to the countries. It can be for either doctors or just food such as rice and water. The government building was ruined also, so the government hasn't been in control so american soilders have gone in to help out. The United States have raised over 48 Million, and still getting money. If I was in the situation I would be horrified and dreadfully afraid. I would be scared for my family and my life. I would help search for people hidden in the fubble, I would do all I could do help peope survive! I would search for food and wait for help! I would pray to God that he would be stay with me and the country!
